Hi All,

Here is a nice design problem for all the Solidworks Experts :)

I need to add a thickness to selected faces of a solid body. (NOT ALL FACES)

As far as I know, one can only add a thickness to a surface.

The only solution that I can think of is by adding a 0.0 mm offset to the faces that I want to thicken. 

Adding a thickness to this created "offset", and then combining the bodies today.

Only problem with this, is that Solidworks makes a noticable segmentation between the two bodies.

I have attached an image below as reference.

Even when I combine, this segmentation (line) does not dissapear.

Does anyone know how to thicken a surface of a body and then combine it with the original body?

Thank you

Scott
